ISP BT Offers Choice of 3 Tech Gadgets with Broadband Packages

New customers of BT’s UK home broadband and phone packages are for a limited time being offered a free choice of either an Amazon Echo (smart speaker), JBL Bar Studio (soundbar) or Hive Smart Lights Pack when they sign-up to the service, which is on top of the provider’s now customary reward cards (pre-paid MasterCard).

The offer of free tech gadgets is expected to run until at least 23rd May and it may continue to be available until 30th May (according to BT’s website), but BT does have a tendency to change their promotions on a weekly basis and their supply of units could run out sooner than expected.

At the start of this year BT also announced that they would “not be increasing prices for BT broadband, home phone and mobile plans in 2019” and from 2020 they’ll instead adopt price increases linked to inflation (here). Mind you they do have some of the most expensive post-contract prices in the consumer broadband market, so that may not be much of a consolation.

Easy to move your phone number. But you can only do it on a real fibre connection, and most of those services above come through a phone line not fibre, so if you move to a VoIP service you can’t have broadband and therefore no phone… they have it all stitched up.
